Whats wrong with him?

Thru work I met one of our vendors over the telephone and we've had about 10 or so really great non-business related phone conversations in the past 2 months. He's divorced and I am too. We have alot in common and also share the same sense of humor - he has made suggestions about getting our kids together or taking my daughter and myself out to dinner, but he has never yet asked me out on a date. He's a successful businessman, who is also very good looking (he has sent me 3 pictures of himself - I have not sent any of myself). We live about an hour from each other, so distance is not a problem. He's not in a relationship, so I really can't figure this one out. I'm divorced for 2+ years now, and just beginning to start dating again. Why has he not yet asked me out, and how can I get him to finally take the plunge and ask me out?

Rather than waiting around for him, perhaps suggest a lunch date so the two of you can finally meet after spending so much time on the phone. If he declines then you know that this man enjoys talking to you on the phone but has no desires to meet you face to face. Some people enjoy connecting over the Internet or phone but aren't really interested in moving forward with a real relationship.

BTW, your screen name doesn't reflect a defunct heavy metal band, does it?

I think he will ask you out if you sent him your picture. Why haven't you, would you say yes to a date with him if you didn't know how he looked like? I think he wants to see you what you look like, afterall he has sent you his picure 3x's, what are you waiting for?

Maybe he is scared to ask you out on a date why don't you ask him if wants to go out on a date. If u don't want to ask him then take him up on the offer to get your kids together and see how that works maybe that is he way of asking you out
